The Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George, Knight Commander's (K.C.M.G.) set of Insignia, comprising neck Badge, silver-gilt and enamel; breast Star, silver with appliqué centre in gold and enamel, by Edward Thomason, 'ET' hallmarks to pinback and catch, nearly extremely fine with full neck riband as worn and in fitted Garrard & Co., 24 Abermarle St. case, this with broken exterior clasp (2)

The 'ET' hallmark is associated with the workshop of Edward Thomason, who was knighted by King William IV in 1832, and whose workshop was headquartered in Birmingham and active circa 1806-1835. The breast Star is therefore an older example of the insignia which is held inside a more modern case.
